#AppleIntelligence comes to the EU with iOS 18.4!

Interestingly, it seems that models need to be redownloaded if they were already on the device (I used it outside of the EU last year).

Raycast - Your shortcut to everything

A collection of powerful productivity tools all within an extendable launcher.

Following a good amount of tweaking, @raycast has permanently replaced Spotlight on my #Mac.

I can’t get over just how much you can do without ever leaving the Raycast window.

Here's how I use it: https://dmarcinkowski.pl/blog/how-i-use-raycast-on-my-mac/

Following the iPhone 16e announcement, Apple Intelligence is all over Apple’s EU websites!

Am I pushing #AppleNotes to its limits? Most likely. Does this system work for me? 100%.

I have shared more details about my note-taking setup on my blog: https://dmarcinkowski.pl/blog/why-i-chose-apple-notes-with-forever-notes-over-obsidian-and-notion/

Why I Chose Apple Notes With Forever ✱ Notes Over Obsidian And Notion

Despite its limitations, Apple Notes has been the core part of my productivity system, and Forever ✱ Notes framework takes is to another level.

I have even implemented the ✱ Journal, made of 384 individual notes corresponding to years, quarters, months, and days.

I use this system to stay on top of my Yearly Theme, Personal OKRs, and daily goals.

At first, it took me some convincing, but I quickly became fond of the framework's concepts like the ✱ Home note, ✱ Hubs, and ✱ Collections based on tags.
Recently, I gave Obsidian a shot, but instead of going all-in, I ended up doubling down on my existing #AppleNotes setup by implementing the Forever ✱ Notes framework.

The glasses are also excellent for taking calls, listening to podcasts, and even using them for WhatsApp video calls!

If you're curious about all of their capabilities, read my blog post here: https://dmarcinkowski.pl/blog/eights-months-with-meta-ray-ban-smart-glasses/

Eights Months With Meta Ray-Ban Smart Glasses

The second generation of Meta's smart glasses is clearly a success. And after using a pair for 8 months, I love them.

The picture quality is surprisingly good, comparable to something like the Ultra Wide sensor on an iPhone 11, but with saturation from Samsung Galaxy phones.

But what I love the most is just the ability to quickly capture fleeing moments where otherwise I would have to grab my phone.
